Perhaps this is a What Would Jesus Do moment. Would Jesus want His followers to gather closely together during a pandemic?
I would think not. But I am unsure of that. No one seems to know whats going on. Some experts say masks work great. Others say no. Some say the six-foot rule is fine. Others say no. Etc.
RE: Would Jesus want His followers to gather closely together during a pandemic?
OK, where is the consistency in the policy?
Why is it OK for thousands to gather together in protest without social distancing and coming to church not allowed?

Christ would want His followers to listen for His voice and not the voice of men. Yes, Covid is among us, but God has given His people wisdom (too), and expects His people to exercise both caution AND obedience.
Yeah...sure...Jesus Christ would cower in fear of a coughing virus in his basement with a mask on... /s
At least (for now) we don't have to stay outside the city and shout UNCLEAN! when someone comes near.
